Hi, my name is @BBMomma and I'm currently in service academy forum withdrawl... it's been a few months and I've only been tempted into coming on here a few times, but with my DS gone with class of 2027, this past week has been hard and drove me back here. Back to the amazing individuals that offered so much advice and assistance the past two years. You all are what helped us get through not just one, but two application cycles and we could not thank you anymore. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank the moderators and ALO's on this forum. You all are part of why my boy made it where he is. Your advice, guidance and assistance, helped him navigate a difficult process and helped keep us both grounded. So thank you and for anyone/any parent of any child that is looking at going to a service academy, the wealth of knowledge that comes from this forum is more than your soon to be appointee will ever need to navigate the application process.
